About Ackley State Wildlife Area

This 1,158-acre state-owned site is located next to 20,000 acres of county land. The property is managed with fire so it's mainly grasslands with scattered ponds. This property is managed for Sharp-tailed Grouse. It is also a good place to see grassland birds including Clay-colored and Henslow's Sparrows.
